Authorities in Limestone County are issuing a warning to the community regarding a rise in scam phone calls that falsely claim to be associated with Publisher’s Clearing House. Numerous residents have reported receiving phone calls from individuals who claim that in order to claim a prize, they must first pay a fee, taxes, or other administrative costs.
It is important for residents to be aware that Publisher’s Clearing House filed for bankruptcy earlier this year and is no longer conducting business, which means they are not distributing any prizes. If you receive such a call, it is crucial to report it to your local law enforcement agency to help combat these fraudulent activities. Stay vigilant and protect yourself from potential scams.
